Uchumi’s agony as High Court sets repeat creditors vote.

-The troubled retailer is expected to stage a second creditors meeting on March 2 and an ultimate vote which will in principal determine the continuity of the 45 year old retailer.

Its old case that is just coming up for routine hearing, which will not be adjudicated on due to the development of CVA with creditors agreed in March 2020

The retailer last week got a reprieve from the High Court, which marked an insolvency petition against Uchumi as settled and withdrawn following an out-of-court deal with suppliers.
Part of the court rulling, Uchumi is to receive 70% discount on the outstanding liability of Ksh 4.7B...Meaning Uchumi supermarket to pay Ksh 1.4 B in 6 months(30% of the liability) and the rest spread as preference shares and discounted.

Just coming at the right time when Tuskys is struggling and Shoprite and Choppies exiting Kenya
